     @NonPlayableClown @matty @hfaust I fucking hate bitlocker. Absolutely nobody asked it for to trigger the recovery code when the "hardware" changes (this can include a BIOS update, BTW), I just want it encrypted bro

     @NonPlayableClown @matty @hfaust Happened at work
     
     Here's the fun part: Windows push BIOS update by itself now
     
     In the old world, as far as I'm aware, BIOS updates used to be a thing you didn't fuck with unless you had a weird unexplained problem with software, but it was more often hardware related
     
     Now it all gets updated automatically if you don't have an MDM/UEM platform picking and choosing the patches

     You are unlocking some repressed memories where some dipshit pushed a bios update that caused tens of laptops to get bitlocker triggered.

     @hfaust Does bitlocker prevent you from getting to safe mode or deleting shit in safe mode?

     @coolboymew @realcaseyrollins @NonPlayableClown @hfaust @matty Most of the drafts for encryptions/uefi are done/influenced by the usual suspects.

     @coolboymew @NonPlayableClown @matty @hfaust To be fair, it's pretty secure. It can keep people from ripping out a hard drive and throwing it into custom hardware.

     But it should be customizable and granular, like if orgs don't want #BIOS updates to trigger #Bitlocker, it shouldn't have to.

     @realcaseyrollins @NonPlayableClown @matty @hfaust The problem with that is that the odds are extremely low to begin with
     
     What are the odds of...
     -Some dude stealing it
     -Dude is actually knowledgable/sells it to very specific hackers
     -They have special encryption breaking hardware
     
     If they do, what good will the recovery key be in the first place?
     
     Having a recovery key is a very good idea, having it trigger because of a BIOS update is a very bad idea however. This should have been an optional option, which there isn't as far as I'm aware
